Quality vs. quantity leggings for 6 DD

5 replies

Wondering if anyone has found leggings that they would really recommend for 6 dd. I know that come he summer that will be basically all she will want to wear. So either I go for lots of cheap ones ( which will likely not be in shape for her little sister to inherit) or had anyone found any that really stand up to repeated wear and washing in which case I will spend more and maybe they will make it to her sister. Are Boden leggings worth the £ ? Any other recommendations?

H&M are good basics
I wouldn't bother with Boden they don't seem to wash well anymore

I've always liked Gap for leggings, they are a nice weight of cotton, hold their shape and wash very well. Whenever I've been in they've always been part of a multibuy offer so work out fine price wise. We have had some pairs from M&S but I found they didn't hold their shape too well. We've had some from H&M too but imo they're not as good as our Gap ones. Boden leggings are actually one of the few items I haven't tried.

H&M are fine. They don't usually last more then one child though, but as they are cheap, it doesn't matter.

DD2 trashes leggings in Summer. Decent black ones possibly, put every other colour gets grass and mud stained knees. No chance of them being fit to hand down.
